 Read the following passage and indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
At the age of sixty-five, Laura Ingalls Wilder began writing a series of novels for young people
based on her early experiences on the American frontier. Born in the state of Wisconsin in 1867,
she and her family were rugged pioneers. Seeking better farmland, they went by covered wagon to
Missouri in 1869, then on to Kansas the next year, returning to Wisconsin in 1879. Because of this
constant moving, Wilder’s early education took place more sporadically in a succession of one-
room schools. From age thirteen to sixteen, she attended school more regularly, although she never graduated.
At the age of eighteen, she married Almanzo James Wilder. They bought a small farm in the
Ozarks, where they remained for the rest of their lives. Their only daughter, Rose, who had become
a nationally known journalist, encouraged her mother to write. Serving as agent and editor, Rose
negotiated with Harper’s to publish her mother’s first book, Little House in the Big Woods. Seven
more books followed, each chronicling her early life on the plains. Written from the perspective of a
child, they have remained popular with young readers from many nations. Twenty years after her
death in 1957, more than 20 million copies had been sold, and they had been translated into
fourteen languages. In 1974, a weekly television series, “Little House on the Prairie,” was
produced, based on the stories from the Wilder books.
